2. No Other Amendments or Waivers. Except in connection with the amendment set forth above, the execution, delivery and effectiveness of this Amendment shall not operate as an amendment or waiver of any right, power or remedy of Agent or the Lenders under the Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, nor constitute a waiver of any provision of the Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents. Except for the amendment set forth above, the text of the Credit Agreement and all other Loan Documents shall remain unchanged and in full force and effect and Borrowers hereby ratify and confirm their respective obligations thereunder. This Amendment shall not constitute a modification of the Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or a course of dealing with Agent or the Lenders at variance with the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents such as to require further notice by Agent or the Lenders to require strict compliance with the terms of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents in the future, except as expressly set forth herein. Borrowers acknowledge and expressly agree that Agent and the Lenders reserve the right to, and do in fact, require strict compliance with all terms and provisions of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, as amended herein. Borrowers have no knowledge of any challenge to Agent’s or any Lender’s claims arising under the Loan Documents, or to the effectiveness of the Loan Documents.

(d) As to each Borrower, the Loan Documents to which such Borrower is a party (including, without limitation, the Credit Agreement, this Amendment and all other documents contemplated hereby), when executed and delivered by such Borrower, will be the legally valid and binding obligations of such Borrower, enforceable against such Borrower in accordance with their respective terms, except as enforcement may be limited by equitable principles or by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, or similar laws relating to or limiting creditors’ rights generally;

(e) No Default or Event of Default exists under the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents; and

(f) As of the date hereof, all representations and warranties of Borrowers set forth in the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents are true, correct and complete in all material respects, except to the extent such representation or warranty expressly relates to an earlier date (in which case such statement was true and correct in all material respects on and as of such earlier date).


5. Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original and all of which, taken together, shall constitute one and the same agreement. In proving this Amendment in any judicial proceedings, it shall not be necessary to produce or account for more than one such counterpart signed by the party against whom such enforcement is sought. Any signatures delivered by a party by facsimile transmission or by e-mail transmission shall be deemed an original signature hereto.

6. Reference to and Effect on the Loan Documents. Upon the effectiveness of this Amendment, on and after the date hereof, each reference in the Credit Agreement to “this Agreement,” “hereunder,” “hereof” or words of like import referring to the Credit Agreement, and each reference in the other Loan Documents to “the Credit Agreement” “thereunder,” “thereof” or words of like import referring to the Credit Agreement, shall mean and be a reference to the Credit Agreement as amended hereby.

7. Costs, Expenses and Taxes. Borrowers agree, jointly and severally, to pay on demand all costs and expenses in connection with the preparation, execution, and delivery of this Amendment and the other instruments and documents to be delivered hereunder, including, without limitation, the fees and out-of-pocket expenses of counsel for Agent with respect thereto and with respect to advising Agent as to its rights and responsibilities hereunder and thereunder. In addition, Borrowers agree, jointly and severally, to pay any and all stamp and other taxes payable or determined to be payable in connection with the execution and delivery of this Amendment and the other instruments and documents to be delivered hereunder, and agree to save Agent and the Lenders harmless from and against any and all liabilities with respect to or resulting from any delay in paying or omission to pay such taxes. Borrowers hereby acknowledge and agree that Agent may, without prior notice to Borrowers, charge such costs and fees to Borrowers’ Loan Account pursuant to Section 2.6(d) of the Credit Agreement.
